Peacock Lyrics

Aeroplane, a silver membrane*
Cutting slate gray skies
Submarine, a silver membrane
Diving straight, diving straight

I canât dive, I canât fly
I cannot follow
I must trudge on my own
I cannot borrow from tomorrow

Thinnest membrane
Hollow cell frame
Piercing, breaking
Surface tension

And I said, I said,
âPlease donât leave me aloneâ
And you said, you said,
You wouldnât go very far

Youâll forget about me
And I will be so lonely
Whichever way you depart
Far away is too far
